Wednesdays are great for Wordless and Wordful posts, but we decided to go a different route and create our own Wednesday fun. We figured what the hell. That’s how we started What The Hell Wednesday. Who are we kidding? That’s pretty much how we decide on almost everything.

My husband is in Florida with our DD (Disney Daughter) while I’m here in the frozen north holding down the fort. Tonight I even had to take out the trash! What the Hell??!! I’m not good at taking out the trash. It’s bad enough he’s down there, but every text, picture or Facebook status update always about the great food he’s having, how wonderful the weather is and how much fun he’s having. Ugh! What The Hell??!! I don’t want to see every delicious bite you eat while I’m at home taking out the trash, cleaning the litterbox and exciting things like that. He did say “Aren’t you happy for me?” Umm..no, no I’m not.
I’m still waiting for a response from our hosting company regarding our “violation of Terms of Service”. What the Hell??!! I can’t quite figure out how we are violating it. The whole thing is pretty annoying and by pretty annoying I mean totally annoying!
What’s the deal with the toilet paper commercials and the whole “respect the roll” thing? Have you seen the one where the neighbor is looking out his window into the neighbor’s bathroom and notices they don’t have a cover for their extra roll of toilet paper. What The Hell??!! Why the hell doesn’t somebody have a problem with the peeping tom neighbor?? That seems to me to be a bigger issue than an uncovered roll of toilet paper. Just sayin’

I know we need to have a Presidential Address every now and then. I mean at least tonight there wasn’t anything good on t.v. and all. I don’t watch them because I really don’t care. The thing is I wanted to watch the rerun of Modern Family afterwards but noooooooooooo. What the Hell? They had everyone analyzing what the hell he had said. And then you had to have the Republican response to it. Who cares??? Shut up! Ugh, I hate politics. Don’t email me, I really don’t care.
Two weeks after getting my latest cold I feel okay but still can’t breathe through my sinuses. What The Hell? And now Thing 2 is sick with it! It’s the never ending cold season this year!
The kittens are adorable, and have been here for 4 months now. The only problem is that they get into everything!! Just the other day one of them ate Thing 1′s headphones and the headset for the Wii!! What The Hell? You can’t leave anything out without them tipping it over and chewing it!!
Did you hear about the worker in NY that had to spell “SCHOOL XING” on the road outside a school? He actually spelled it, “SHCOOL”. But, NO ONE from the school noticed!! What The Hell? Were the teachers and students just not paying attention or is that a sign that you don’t want to send your kids to that shcool school?
If it’s Tuesday this must be Random Tuesday Thoughts. It used to be brought to you by Keely at The Un-Mom but she’s taking a hiatus. Okay, it’s been a really long hiatus but Random Tuesdays still rock on with help from Stacy.

Ya, I know this is late. It’s a long story.
Hmm.. Looks like Stacy is a no show once again.
Yesterday was my day off and I had planned on some housework, finally reading the latest Janet Evanovich book and some computer time before the kids got home from school. That was all before I checked my email. I had an email from the company that hosts our site and apparently we are “violating the terms of service”. If I can’t figure out the issue they can “suspend” our site. Fun times! I seriously have no idea what I’m doing so don’t be surprised if Blue Monkey Butt disappears off the face of the internet. Our mother will miss us anyway.
On the upside, I did receive an “official” email from the FBI stating that there was money coming to me from Nigeria and it was legit. Awesome! I could so use 65 million dollars right now! It was sort of odd that the wording of the email sounded a lot like the emails that come from Nigeria and the email address for Fed Ex was a hotmail account, but hey, the FBI said it was legit. I feel so much better about it now that I know it isn’t a scam. Glad that got cleared up.
Is it odd that I used the “Start Over” feature on our cable box on an episode of Phineas and Ferb? What? I hadn’t seen that one.
Mr. Barky McBarkypants is doing pretty well in his obedience class. It being his second class and all. The instructors did bring up the his spinning habit. When he’s excited or nervous he spins. They said as long as he can stop it isn’t a problem. If he can’t then it’s an OCD issue. All I need is a dog on Prozac. That would just be awesome. Maybe he could even have a doggy therapist. That wouldn’t be a waste of money at all.
Don’t forget to join us for What The Hell Wednesday tomorrow. That is if we’re here.
I may not be able to dress my cats up like Oreo from Small Town Mommy, but they still like to join him for Meow Monday.
We think poor George was taken away from his mother too soon or else he has a fleecy blanket fetish. Every time he is tired he finds one of our fleece blankets and acts like it’s his mother. If it’s quiet, you can even hear him making sucky noises. It’s just lovely when you grab a blanket to cover up and it’s covered in cat slobber. I’m pretty sure he’ll never outgrow this habit and we will always have blankets covered in cat spit. Good thing he is so darn cute.
Since all of our cats came from Lollypop Farm, we like to promote an adoptable cat each week for the Pet of the Week.
This week we have Mr. Toad.
Mr. Toad is a 6-year-old longhaired cat who was seized in the Riga cruelty investigation and can’t wait to find a loving home. He is a beautiful, mellow boy who likes getting attention. If you’re 60 or older, you can adopt Mr. Toad free of charge through our Seniors-for-Seniors program! But he would make a great companion for cat-lovers of any age.
Mr. Toad really deserves a home of his own!

Stacy-I was thinking yesterday as I was sitting with my bright red nose, how can you have a runny nose that is completely stuffed up? Seriously What The Hell?
I turned on NBC Saturday night to watch Saturday Night Live, and all that was there was some crappy music and a statement that said this channel is unavailable. What The Hell? I can’t watch NBC or CW shows, okay, the CW is not an issue because there isn’t one show on there that I watch, but NBC??? What The Hell? I went on to DirectTv’s website and apparently the NBC station wants to raise the price 300% for DirectTv to carry it. I guess I’ll be watching all my shows online for now.

I’d be pretty upset if Time Warner took away the CW. I’d be all What The Hell happened to the Dean show the Sam and Dean show Supernatural? At least it’s in reruns on TBS for 2 hours every day.

Today I woke up with a runny, stuffy nose. Great, I’m sick again. This year has been ridiculous! I think I may have gotten sick once last year, this year it’s practically non-stop.
The Ambien Adventures continue. I may have to stop taking it. The thing is, I sleep so good, or at least I think I’m sleeping, and I feel rested, even if I am up talking, texting, emailing and saying super crazy things. It would probably make a funny YouTube video, although I don’t think I want everyone seeing me all messed up.
Did you know that there’s a Girl Scout Cookie App for Smart Phones this year? It tells you exactly where there is a Girl Scout Cookie Sale. I don’t know about you, but I’ve known for weeks, and have had my order in. Because really, the Mom’s selling the cookies sure let you know when they’re up for sale. You don’t need an app for that.

We finally got several inches of snow last week and my dogs are loving it. Me? Not so much. They love to go out, eat the snow then come in. About 30 minutes later they are barking to go out because they need to go from all the snow they ate. I let them out, they go, then try to eat more snow before I get them back inside. This cycle will repeat itself all day long. I try to stop them from eating snow which involves me yelling “Stop eating snow!” over and over. Then Toby will look at me and then sneak a huge bite of snow and run in the house. I can’t win. I’m hoping the snow will lose it’s appeal after a while.
Last night I planned on getting up early this morning and baking some cinnamon rolls for Sissy’s breakfast before school this morning. Okay, not homemade , Pillsbury does the heavy lifting, I put them in a dish and bake them and then frost them. It’s still a lot to do that early in the morning. But because someone was snoring I didn’t sleep very well. I didn’t get up as early as I planned, which turned out to be a good thing. Sissy also didn’t get up, even after I turned on her light. For the record, turning on the bedroom light in your teenage daughter’s room while she isn’t fully awake, totally ticks them off. Just sayin’ . So, in turn, Sissy didn’t come out into the kitchen until it was time for the bus. She didn’t have time to even look at the breakfast I did make, never mine eat it. She was pretty grumpy when she got on the bus. But since I didn’t get up early and make cinnamon rolls that she wouldn’t get the chance to eat, I was actually in a good mood. Funny how things work out.
Don’t forget to join us for What the Hell Wednesday tomorrow. It’s where we get to complain about all the things that made us say “What the Hell??”" this past week.
It appears that all my cats have taken the day off and apparently so has Oreo from Small Town Mommy. Even though my cats are AWOL we still have a wonderful cat from Lollypop Farm looking for a home on this Meow Monday.
Here is Panda, the Pet of the Week
Panda is a 2-year-old female cat who was brought to Lollypop Farm with three other cats. They have been adopted, so Panda hopes that now it’s her turn! Panda was brought to Lollypop Farm because her family felt that they didn’t have enough time for a cat. She is playful, likes people and cats, and has a cute meow. Panda has lived with dogs and kids before, but she seems to be scared of dogs and may prefer a home without them. Panda has extra toes on her front paws. This occurs in some cats and makes their feet look like little mittens! You can visit Panda at 99 Victor Road, Fairport, NY 14450.
I can’t believe it’s been a year. Happy Birthday Owynn & Oliver! Wish we could be there.

I went to the Doctor a few weeks ago for a physical. I was on a medication to help me sleep but it wasn’t working anymore. My Doctor prescribed me the generic form of Ambien. I took it last Friday night and woke up feeling great. I went to bed at 12:15 a.m. and slept awesome, other than a few weird dreams. But then I learned that my weird dreams were actually real. What the Hell? Apparently I was up until 2 am talking on the phone!! I thought I had dreamt my weird conversation, but nooooooo.
Since nothing is on tonight except for the stupid Primary news, I watched that “Extreme Couponing” show. What The Hell? How the hell do these women have that many coupons? Or the time to do this?? Do they buy like 100′s of Sunday Papers? Because if so, how does that really save them money? Maybe I could hire them to cut coupons and shop for me, although I really don’t need 150 pounds of brown rice and 65 sponges.

I think I have allergies already! I have been sneezing like crazy. What the Hell?? I blame Mother Nature and this crazy warm weather in January. Even sudafed isn’t helping.
This goes under the category of “What The Hell were they Thinking?????” You’ll have to click on the link because we aren’t allowed to use that type of language. Our mom would be sooooo mad. But apparently there are times it is useful.

I live in NH. I know I’ve mentioned that one before. Tomorrow is the NH Primary. And I cannot wait for the damn republicans to leave my state! They cause me to have to sit in traffic everywhere! I also cannot wait for Ron Paul to stop calling my house! He calls the house about 10 or so times a day! Guess what, I’m not voting for you because you’ve been harassing me and using up my answering machine! I know I’m suppose to care, but really it’s just a pain in the ass….just sayin’
I don’t think gas should be able to raise up 8 cents or more within a day, it sure doesn’t go down that much!!
Getting my 13 year old son an electric drum kit was really not a good idea.
Getting my 13 year old son an electric drum kit and him suddenly starting a band that wants to rehearse at my house…..REALLY not a good idea!!
Elle
Welcome to my world Stacy! I know all about electronic drums and bands practicing at the house.
We signed up Mr. Barky McBarky pants up for obedience classes at Lollypop Farm. We had the first class this past Sunday. It was just for us and we left him home. It was a lot more fun than I thought it would be. We learned how to use clicker training on dogs that were already pretty well behaved. We left with a homework packet and a clicker.
Apparently I left the homework packet too close to the edge of the table.
It’s pretty bad when your dog chews up his own homework!
The twins are going to be one on the 14th! I can’t believe how fast this first year has flown by.
We are also getting for DD, which is what the kids call her, to head down to Walt Disney World to start another semester in their College Program. (I think DD stands for Disney Daughter). This will be her third time in the program. She loves it there and I’m fairly certain she’ll be working for Disney when she graduates.

He really is a special cat and if he could talk, he would be happy to tell you that himself.
I had a lot of wrapping to do before Christmas and really needed help getting it done.
Snuffy came to my rescue.
No wonder it took me so long to wrap everything!
Snuffy is adorable and such a sweetie. He came from
Lollypop Farm 11 years ago.
We are really hoping that Magpie gets a home of her own soon.
Magpie
Magpie told Santa that all she wanted for Christmas was a home and family to love her! She’s been in the shelter since March!!!! I think it’s about time for her wish to come true, don’t you?
Magpie is a lovely kitty of about 7 years. She has intense golden eyes and her fur is incredibly shiny and soft. Magpie was brought in to Lollypop Farm because her owner could no longer care for her. Magpie is a friendly and mellow kitty who has been supervising our work in staff offices (she’s not interested in helping get the work done, however). She has made it clear she does not prefer the company of other cats, so she’d be a great only pet.
Since Magpie is 7 years old, she is eligible for the Seniors-for-Seniors program where a pet 6 years and older is free of charge to approved adopters age 60 and older.
Magpie’s Feline-ality assessment revealed that she’s Sidekick. Like all sidekicks, I’m just plain good company. I like attention, and I also like my solitude. I don’t go looking for trouble, but I’m no scaredy-cat either. If you are looking for a steady companion to travel with you on the road of life, look no further.
Please help us get a home for Magpie!
Our cat from last week, His Royal Majesty, has been adopted!
Stumble it!
